Love is so much bigger than romance — and your scrapbook deserves to reflect that truth.

In this episode, Tina expands the conversation around love to include chosen family, deep friendships, community connections, and the quiet relationships that help us feel seen and supported.

You'll explore:

• Why romantic love is over-centered in memory keeping

• Honoring chosen family and non-traditional relationships

• Documenting belonging without big milestones

• Creative prompts for telling connection-centered stories

This episode is affirming, inclusive, and especially resonant for LGBTQ+ creatives, survivors, caregivers, and anyone building meaningful connection outside traditional narratives.

💛 Your relationships matter. All of them.

February can feel heavy — full of expectations, romance-centered messaging, and pressure to feel a certain way. In this opening episode of our February series, Tina invites you to step off the productivity treadmill and into a gentler relationship with creativity.

This episode explores self-love not as a buzzword, but as a practice of permission. A way of tending yourself creatively without rushing, fixing, or performing.

You'll hear reflections on:

• Why creativity can start to feel demanding instead of nourishing

• How self-love looks like listening, stopping, and honoring limits

• Reframing "unfinished" as intentional care

• A simple creative practice for restoring gentleness and trust

This episode is especially supportive for scrapbookers, card makers, and creative souls navigating burnout, trauma recovery, chronic illness, or emotionally tender seasons.

✨ You are allowed to create exactly as you are.

In this deeply grounding episode, Tina reframes creativity as a daily support system rather than a performance. Through personal stories, trauma-informed insight, and gentle creative rituals, listeners are invited to reconnect with creativity as a place of steadiness, safety, and trust.

✨ Creativity as nervous-system support
